4. Most of the bountiful garbage there is due to sheer population density
We still generate far, far, far more garbage per person in the US than they do anywhere else in the world.

So yes, they generate a huge amount of garbage and other pollutants in China, but the amount per person is far less than here. Not saying it's good, just that we're still very bad in this respect.
